Cannabis coffee shop

A coffeeshop in the Netherlands is a place where the sale of cannabis (marijuana) for personal consumption by the public is tolerated by the local authorities.
A Dutch establishment advertising itself as a coffeeshop is likely to be primarily in the business of selling cannabis products and possibly other substances which are tolerated (in Dutch: "gedoogd") under the drug policy of the Netherlands. A koffiehuis sells coffee and light meals, whilst a café is the equivalent of a bar.
